force  was  got  by  the  sons  of  Mac  Diarmata^  and  they 
followed  them  on  their  track  to  Ech-druim  of  Tir-Briuin 
and  the  church  of  Ech-druim  was  burned  by  them  on  Mac 
Diarmata.^  And  his  brother,  namely,  Concobur  Mac 
Diarmata,  was  killed  there  and  many  of  the  people  of 
Mac  Diarmata  were  killed  by  them  and  their  horses  and 
accoutrements  were  [forcibly]  taken  from  them.  And 
then  they  [the  reconnoitring  party]  went  back  to  where 
the  host  was  and  so  on. — An  attack  was  made  by 
Muircertach  Ua  Concobuir  on  Ua  Domnaill  in  Tir-Aedha 
and  he  seized  no  property  that  time.  And  they  turned,  as 
they  seized  it  not,  to  Es-ruadh.  Aedh  Ua  Duirnin  over- 
took them  there  and  inflicted  defeat  on  them  courageously, 
triumphantly  near  Bel-atha-Senaigh.  The  horse  of  Aedh 
was  injured  there  and  he  himself  was  thrown  and  the  thick 
of  the  host  overtook  him  there  and  they  killed  him.^ — 
Murchadh  Ua  Ferghail  the  Fair,  namely,  an  excellent  son 
of  a  chief,  died  this  year  in  his  own  house,  after  victory 
of  penance. — The  Earl  of  Desmond,  namely,  Gerald,^  died 
this  year  and  Ireland  was  full  [of  the  fame]  of  his  know- 
ledge.— Ruaidhri,  son  of  Aedh  Mag  Uidhir,  died.

1407.^  John,  son  of  Tadhg  Ua  Euairc,  namely,  one  who 
was  to  be  king  of  Breifni,  died  in  Magh-Luirg  and  was 
carried  from  that  to  Druim-lethan  and  buried  therein. — 
Great  defeat  was  ioflicted  this  year  by  the  Foreigners  in 
Callaidh  on  Walter  de  Burgh,  namely,  the  grandson  of 
the  Earl  of  Ulster^  and  on  Tadhg  Ua  Cerbhaill:  a 
place  where  was  slain  Tadhg  himself,  to  wit,  the  best 
general  protector  that  was  in  Ireland  in  his  own  time. 
And  Walter  was  taken  prisoner  in  that  defeat. — Defeat 
was  inflicted  by  Ua  Conchobuir  the  Red  and  by  Tadhg  Ua 
Ceallaigh  and  by  Ruaidhri  Mac  Diarmata  on  Mac  William 
of  Clann-Ricaird  and  on  Cathal  Ua  Conchobair.  Cathal 
himself  was  taken  prisoner  there  and  persons  numerous 
were  [either]  taken  prisoners  or  ^  slain  there. — Aedh  Mag 
Uidhir  (namely,  son  of  Philip  of  the  [battle-]axe), 
that  is,  tanist  of  Fir-Manach,  was  taken  prisoner  in 
treachery  in  the  town  of  Cathal  Ua  E,uairc  the  Deaf  and 
the  son  of  Maghnus  Mag  Uidhir,  namely,  Conchobur,  and 
many  other  good  people  were  taken  with  him  there. 
And  by  the  Men  of  Tir-Conaill,*  on  the  suggestion  of  the 
Brefnians,  that  capture  was  effected.  And  therefrom 
it  is  called  the  Hospitality  of  the  Malignity^ 
from  that  [time]  down.

king  of  Ui-Failghi,  was  slain  ^  by  the  Clann-Fheorais.^ 


the  A.  L.  C,  was  1406-7.  The 
reasons  assigned  for  the  double 
notation,  are,  as  was  to  be  expected 
{Cf.  Todd  lectures,  III.  378  sq.), 
without  foundation.  The  obser- 
vation, however,  affords  a  probable 
clue  to  the  partial  misdating  of  the 
A.  L.C.  from  1399  to  1406.    The 


events  in  question  may  have  taken 
place  between  Jan.  1  and  March 
25.  They  would  thus  be  dated  a 
year  in  advance  in  Chronicles  in 
which  the  A.D. began  on  Lady  Day.

Brian,^  sou  of  Domnall  TJa  Concliobair.  The  liost  of  the 
Province^  came  at  the  time  to  prevent  the  work.  Brian 
mustered  another  host  against  those,  under  his  kinsmen 
and^under  Mac  Donnchaidh  and  under  Ua  Euairc,  namely, 
Tadhg.  And  the  Ultonian  host  did  not  attempt  to  go 
across  the  Ursgathach  westward  to  them  on  that  occasion. 
The  men  of  Tir-ConailF  were,  a  numerous  force,  by  the 
port  of  Eas-ruadh  at  that  time.  The  sons  of  Ua  Domnaill, 
namely,  Niall  and  Domnall  and  Nectain,  came  [with]  a 
horse-host  on  the  Plain.*  The  sons  of  Brian  Ua  Concho- 
buir  went  [with]  a  large  reconnoitring  horse-host  at  that 
time  to  Bel-atha-senaigh  and  a  great  encounter  arose 
between  thera.  The  Men  of  Tir-ConailF  overtook  them 
then  and  an  assault  was  made  on  the  Carbrians,  wherein 
were  slain  John,  son  of  Brian  Ua  Concobuir  and  Aedh 
Mac  Donnchaidh  the  Tawny,  and  Cathal,  son  of  Diarmait, 
son  of  Cormac,  son  of  Euaidhri  and  Eogan  Ua  Dubhda. 
Brian  Ua  Conchobuir  and  the  Carbrians  went  on  Magh- 
eine  at  that  time  in  consequence  of  those  tidings.  Eogan 
Ua  Concobuir  and  Toirdelbach  Carrach  went  at  the  end 
of  five  nights^  afterwards  to  Es-ruadh.  The  sons  of  Ua 
Domnaill  were  on  the  over  side  of  the  Cataract,^  in  Port- 
n-long,^  and  they  had  drunk  wine.  And  tale  of  that  was 
got  by  Eogan  and  they  were  attacked  by  his  forces,  and 
Domnall  Ua  Domnaill,  namely,  one  who  was  to  be  king 
of  Tir-Conaill,  was  slain  by  them  along  with  other  persons 
that  are  not  mentioned  here.  And  Niall  Ua  Domnaill 
escaped  from  them  in  a  Saxon  ship  that  was  in  the  harbour 
at  that  time.  And  Eogan  returned  [in  triumph]  on  that 
occasion  to  the  same  Drobhais,  and  so  forth. — Tadhg,  son

sons  of  John  Ua  Eaghra  came  on  a  hosting  with  their 
friends  to  attack  the  sons  of  the  Eastern  Ua  Eaghra. 
Eogan,  son  of  Domnall  TJa  Concobuir,  was  the  patron  and 
protector  of  the  sons  of  Tadhg  Ua  Eaghra.  Numerous 
forays  and  slayings  of  persons  were  committed  by  the  sons 
of  John^  that  time.  Eogan  overtook  them  then,  and  the 
preys  were  asked  from  them  by  him  in  virtue  of  amity 
and  to  preserve  his  hospitality.  And  he  got  [them]  not 
and,  as  he  did  not  get  [them],  he  thought  of  his  own 
nobility  and  went  in  pursuit  of  the  prey.  The  sons  of 
John  and  the  Clan-Maurice  were  defeated  by  Eogan 
and  by  the  son  of  Mac  Donnchaidh  and  by  the  sons  of 
Tadhg  Ua  Eaghra.  And  Mac  Maurice  was  captured  there 
and  Edmond  Mac  Maurice  and  John  son  of  Eichard 
Mac  Maurice  and  William,  son  of  John  Ua  Eaghra 
junior,  and  Tadhg  Ua  Eagra  and  many  others  that 
are  not  reckoned  here  were  slain.  And  the  preys 
were  taken  from  them  then  through  the  good  fortune  of 
Eogan. — William,^  son  of  Mail[-Sh]echlainn  Ua  Ceallaigh, 
namely,  one  who  was  to  be  arch- king  of  Ui-Maine,  and 
the  one  son  of  a  sub-king  who  was  the  most  powerful  and 
famous  and  the  best  man  of  battle  and  who  had  most  part 
in  night  [attack]  that  was  in  Ireland  in  his  own  time,  died 
in  his  own  stronghold  after  victory  of  penance. — Co-libera-

namely,  with  Eogan,  son  of  John  Ua  Raighilligh,  and  the

1425.  The  Mortimer  came  to  Ireland  this  year  :  namely, 
the  Earl  of  March  and  many  of  the  Saxons  came  with 
him.  And  it  is  that  EarP  had  the  guardianship  of  the 
king  of  the  Saxons  and  of  the  greater  part  of  France^  and 
of  all  the  Foreigners  of  Ireland.  For  the  king^  of  the 
Saxons  was  left  a  child,  and  it  is  the  Earl  of  March  that 
had  his^^  protection  and  his  guardianship.  Now,  there  went 
many  of  the  magnates  of  Ireland  to  the  house  of  that  Earl 
and  came  therefrom  in  great  concord  and  honour.  More- 
over, the  magnates  of  the  Ulster  Province  went  to  the  hoiise 
of  that  Earl :  namely,  Ua  Neill  and  Eogan  Ua  Neill  and 
Nechtain  Ua  Domnaill  and  Mac-Ui-Neill-buidhe,  that  is, 
Brian  the  Freckled.  And  Mac  Uibhilin  went  there  apart 
from  the  rest,  by  himself.  On  the  completion  of  their 
compact  with  the  Earl,  the  Earl  died  of  the  plague  before

to  observe,  are  without  foundation.

and  Mac  Uibilin  submitted  to  the  award  of  the  Foreigners 
and  were  liberated.     Many  machinations  and  many  evils 
were  charged  against  Eogan   and  against  the  son  of  Ua

that  is,  the  woman  that  was  of  best  form  and  fame  of  her

clemency in  this  year  and  it  lasted  from   November  Day 
to  May  Day,  so  that  it  brought*  great  destruction  on  cattle 
and  loss  of  tillage  and  loss  of  people  on  the  whole  of 
Ireland. — Muiredach  Stewart,^  namel}^,  prince  of  Scotland, 
was  cut  off  and  his  son,  namely,  Walter  and  his  other  son 
and  the  Great  Steward  of  Leven  were  cut  off  in  treachery

Mac-Ui-Neill-buidhe,  namely,  the  one  son  of  a  king  that 
was  best  in  hospitality  and  in  knowledge  of  every  science

expedition,  and  went  to  their  house[s]  without  making 
peace,  and  so  on. — Mag  Mathgamna,  namely,  Brian,  son 
of  Ardghal,  went  against  Ua  I^eill  and  against  his  own 
kinsmen,  that  is,  Eughraidhe  and  Maghnus.     Mag  Math- 
gamna went  with  his  raiding-party  to  the  Foreign  settle- 
ment.    The  host  of  the  Foreigners   mustered  and  went 
with  Mag  Mathgamna  into  Oirgialla.     And  Dairtraighi  of 
Con-inis  was  burned  by  them,  and  they  went  on  that  expe- 
dition to  the  Plain  of  Ard-Macha,  and  the  valuables  of 
Ard-Macha  were  taken  from  out  the  temples  by  them  and 
burned  on  the  green  of  the  town.     Large  offerings  were 
extorted  from  the  elders  of  the  town  by  them  for  the  sake 
of  its  not  being  burned.     The  Foreigners  and  Mag  Math- 
gamna went  to  their  houses   [in  triumph]   on  that  occa- 
sion.— The  bishop  of  Clochar  died  this  year,  namely.  Art 
Mac   Cathmail,^  on  the  day  of  [St.]  Lawrence  precisely 
[Aug.  14] :  to  wit,  a  man  of  hospitality  and  piety,  and  who 
kept  a  guest-house  for  poor  and  for  [bardic]  bands,  and 
for  pilgrims.     And  he  departed  with  victory  from  world 
and  from  demon,  and  so  on. — Mael  [-Sh]echlain  Mac  Con- 
mara  the  Ui-Mainian,''  namety,   chief  of  Clann-Cuilein, 
died. — Tadhg  Mac  Mathgamna,  namely,  one  destined  to 
be  king  of  Corco-baiscinn,  died. — Maelmordha  Ua  Eaig- 
hilligh  junior   died. — A   host   of   Foreigners   came   into 
Eili-Ui-Cerbaill  and  the  castle  of  Baile-an-britaigh  and 
the  castle  of  Cluain-Ui-Cinaith  were  burned  and  broken 
by  them  on  that  expedition  and  so  on. — A  great  marvel 
took  place  in  Fir-manach  this  year  :  to  wit,  a  goat  gave

of  father  and  mother — namely,  Una,  daughter  of  John 
Ua  Kaighilligh,  [was]  their  mother — and  for  the  excellence 
of  their  vigour  and  their  ^hospitality  and  their  prowess 
and  their  loyalty  unto  that  day.  The  fiflh  son  of  them 
escaped  safe  that  day,  namely,  Toirdelbach  the  Freckled 
and  so  on. — Great  war  [arose]  between  Ua  Neill  and 
Ua  Domnaill,  that  is,  Niall  the  Rough,  son  of  Toirdelbach. 
Ua  Neill  and  Eogan  ^  went  [with]  a  large  host  in  pursuit 
of  Ua  Domnaill  and  Mac  Uibilin  into  the  Dubh-trian. 
Mac  Domnaill  of  Scotland  came  [with]  a  numerous  fleet 
to  Ireland  into  the  muster  of  Ua  Neill  to  aid  him.  Ua 
Domnaill  and  Mac  Uibilin  and  Robert  Savage  were 
pursued  by  them  into  the  Dubh-trian  and  their  cattle 
were  all  wrested  from  them  and  killed  by  tbe  Scotch. 
Yery  great  slaughter  and  loss  of  men  were  inflicted  by 
them  on  Mac  Uibilin,  so  that  only  a  few  of  his  people 
escaped  with  him  from  the  Dubh-trian  :  the  amount  that 
escaped,  they  fell  at  the  river-pass  of  the  New  Castle. 
Ua  Neill  and  Henry,  namely,  the  son  of  Ua  Neill  and 
Mac  Domnaill  of  Scotland  went  with  their  hosts  to  Ard- 
glas  and  it  was  burned  by  them  on  that  expedition. 
Mac  Domnaill  and  his  host  went  in  their  ships  from 
Ard-glas  to  Inis-Eogain  and  Ua  Neill  [went]  by  land  to 
aid  him,  to  harry  Tir-Conaill.  Nechtain  Ua  Domnaill  and 
the  daughter  of  Ua  Concobuir  Faly,  that  is,  the  wife  of 
Ua  Domnaill  and  the  [Tir-]Conallian  sons  of  [sub-]kings 
also  went  into  conference  with  them  at  Inis-Eogain  and 
peace  was  made  between  them  without  permission  from 
Ua  Domnaill.  [For]  Ua  Domnaill  and  Mac  Uibhilin  went 
to  the  Foreign  settlement  of  Meath  and  made  a  pact  with 
them  against  Ua  Neill.  And  the  deputy  *  of  the  king 
took  a  large  host  with  them  to  the  Plain  of  Ard-Macha 
and  they  went  against  the  Monastery  of  Poor  Friars^  in 
Ard-Macha.     [But]  they  returned  to  their  houses  on  that 

■yvlio  were  introduced  into  Armag^h  city  in  1264,  supra.

roll  with  the  arts  of  dan,  or  poetry, 
musick  and  antiquitie.  And  Mae-

writen  in  that  roll  and  first  payed

those  of  his  name  after  him.  And 
so  forth,  every  one,  as  he  was

for  feare  of  mistake,  and  sett

by  the  Foreigners  of  the  Plain  of  Oirgialla  after  his 
expulsion  by  Ua  Neill.  Ua  Domnaill  went  around  Meatb 
westwards  to  Atb-luain  and  went  thence  into  Ui-Maine. 
A  night  march  was  made  by  him  across  the  Plain  ^,  to 
meet  Mac  Diarmata  of  Magh-Luirg  and  thence  to  meet 
Ua  Euairc.  Ua  Ruairc  escorted  him  over  beyond  the 
Erne.  Ua  Neill  and  Mag  Uidhir  went  to  Narrow- Water 
to  meet  Ua  Domnaill  and  peace  was  made  with  him. — 
Two  general  invitations^  were  given  this  year  by  Margaret,

Kalends  of  Jan.  on  Tth  feria,  [29th  of  the  moon,]  a.u.  [1435] 
1435.  Fa  Neill  went  [with]  a  host  into  Fir-Manach 
this  year  and  encampment  was  taken  by  him  on  Craebh- 
Ui-Fhuadachain  and  he  was  three  nights  there.^  The 
Fir-Manach  sent  their  moveables  over  Lough  [Erne]  west- 
wards And  they  had  no  vessels,  but  the  solid  ice  on 
the  Lough  [to  carry  them].  And  all  their  cows  and 
their  pack-horses  went  upon  the  Lough  westwards. 
Mag  Uidhir  mustered  a  large  host  against  Ua  Neill, 
but  peace  was  made  between  them  at  the  end  and 
Mag  Uidhir  went  to  meet  Ua  Neill.  Ua  Neill  went  from 
that  into  Tir-Conaill,  to  harry  it.  Great  burnings  were 
done  by  them  on  that  expedition  and  John,  son  of  Domnall 
Ua  Domnaill,  was  slain  by  them  with  one  shot  of  an 
arrow.  Ua  Neill  went  to  his  house  [in  triumph]  on  that 
occasion. — Domnall,  son  of  Eogan  Mag  Carthaigh,  namely, 
the  best  general  protector  that  was  in  Ireland  in  his  time, 
fell  by  Tadhg,  son  of  Cormac,  son  of  Diarmait  Mag 
Carthaigh. — The  Countess  of  Desmond  died  this  year  : 
namely,  the  daughter  of  Mac  William  de  Burgh,  that  is, 
the  wife  of  Earl  James.^ — Donn,  son  of  Cu-Connacht 
Mag  Uidhir,  died  this  year  after  victory  of  penance  :  to 
wit,  a  man  of  hospitality  and  prowess.  And  he  had 
gone  into  the  Order  of  Canons  of  Cluain-eois,  after  laying 
aside  the  world  for  love  of  the  Lord,  and  so  on. — Alliance 
of  war  was  made  by  Brian  Ua  Neill  junior  and  by  Nechtain 
Ua  Domnaill  against  Ua  Neill  (namely,  Eogan)  and  his 
sons.  Ua  JSTeill,  with  his  sons  (namely,  Henry  and 
Aedh)  leading  the  foraying-band,  went  into  Cenel-Moen 
to  encounter  Brian  and  Nechtain.  The  camp  of  Ua  JN'eill 
was  formed  in  the  Easa  that  time.  When  Nechtain  and 
Brian  juuior  heard  that,  they  assembled  their  host  into 

2  Earl  James. — See  1430,  note  9,  supra.

one  place  to  deliver  a  camp  assault  upon  Ua  Neill  and  [i^s/ii 
went  forward,  until  they  reached  the  E-asa.  Ua  Neill 
was  put  out  from  his  camp,  in  his  despite,  by  them 
that  night  and  the  camp  was  occupied  by  themselves  that^ 
night  in  the  Easa.  Ua  Neill  and  his  sons  and  Mac 
Domnall  the  Gallowglass  proceeded  to  deliberate  what 
they  should  do  that  night.  This  is  the  counsel  they 
adopted  :  *  namel}^  to  deliver  a  camp  assault  upon  the 
[hostile]  host.  Henry  Ua  Neill  made  good  discourse  to 
Mac  Domuaill  and  to  his  own  kinsmen  and  to  his  followers  : 
namely,  that  they  should  have  good  courage  against  their 
enemies.  Not  blackening  of  night  and  not  blanching  of 
visage  did  the  nobles  act  at  that  incentive  and  they  marched 
forward  afterwards  quietly,  silently,  until  they  reached 
the  camp.  Howbeit,  Henry  Ua  Neill  went  in  front  of 
them  courageously,  victoriously  and  powerfully,  full 
splendidly,  until  they  reached  the  very  centre  of  their 
enemies.  But  Mac  Domnaill  the  Gallowglass  and  Mac 
Suibne  of  Fanad  fell  in  with  each  other  then.  And  heroes 
were  hacking  at  one  another^  on  every  side.  Moreover,  the 
friends  and  the  enemies  recognised  not  each  other  in  that 
contest,  through  darkness  of  the  night  and  through  thick- 
ness of  the  heroic  force.  Howbeit,  balls  of  fire  leaped 
from  the  helmets  of  the  champions  and  from  the  breast- 
plates of  the  heroes.  Now,  Aedh  Ua  Neill  and  Brian  Ua 
Neill  junior  chanced  to  meet  each  other  in  that  fray. 
Aedh  gave  a  stroke  of  a  javelin  to  Brian,  so  that  he 
seriously  injured  him.  Brian  and  Nechtain  escaped  that 
night  and  their  gallowglasses  were  left  [behind]  by  them 
after  that  party.     Still,  knowledge  of  their  defection  was

not  bad  by  portion  of  them  that  night.  When  Mac 
Suibne  got  tidings  of  Nechtain  and  Brian  junior  having 
abandoned  himself,  this  is  the  counsel  he  adopted  :  * 
[himself]  to  cover  the  rear^  and  to  escape  without  the 
knowledge  of  Ua  Neill.  Henry  and  his  kinsmen  got 
knowledge  of  that  and  Mac  Suibne  was  pursued  by  them 
and  the  defeat  of  Sliab-truim  was  inflicted  on  them. 
Mac  Suibne  himself  was  taken  prisoner  there,  with  a 
multitude  of  his  people.  Ua  I^eill  on  that  occasion  [went 
home]  triumphantly,  and  so  on, 

(B  continues  after  hacking : 
at  one  another^  there.  And  the  end  of  it  was :  the  camp  was 
abandoned  to  Ua  Neill  and  to  his  sons  and  the  force  that 
were  in  it  fled  and  left  many  of  their  people  [slain.]  And 
Mac  Suibne  was  taken  prisoner,  with  many  others  with 
him,  on  the  morrow.  And  Ua  [N'eill  went  triumphantly» 
battle-victoriously  to  his  house  on  that  occasion.) 

Nechtain  Ua  Domnaill  gave  the  castle  of  Ath-senaigh 
to  Brian  Ua  Neill  junior  for  alliance  of  war  against  Ua 
Neill.  Brian,  however,  failed  Nechtain  and  went  to  Ua 
Neill  again  and  [his]  wards'^  were  left  in  the  castle  of 
Ath-senaigh. — Ua  NeilF  took  Brian  Ua  Neill  junior 
prisoner  this  year  and  a  hand  and  foot  were  taken  ofl*  him 
and  two  sons  of  Brian  (namely,  Aedh  [and  .  .  .])  were 
mutilated  by  him  also  and  so  on. — Hubert,  son  of  "William 
Ua  Ferghail,  namely,  an  eminent  leader,  was  killed  this 
year  by  Meyler,  son  of  Hubert^  and  so  on. — Mag  Craith,

16th  of  the  Kalends  of  November  [Oct.  17].— Mac  Caba 
the  Brefnian  died  this  year :  namely,  Cormac,  son  of  Gilla- 
Crist,  Mac  Caba,  and  Henry  Mac  Caba,  his  brother^ 
was  chosen  by  the  Sil-Eaighilligh  and  by  the  Clann- 
Caba  also  as  Constable  in  Breifni,  and  so  on. — The 
Superior  of  Fidhnach  died  this  year  :  namely,  a  man 
who  kept*  a  general  guest-house. — This  year  a  French 
roof  was  put  by  Thomas  Mag  XJidhir  junior,  namely, 
king  of  Fir-Manach,  on  the  church  of  Achadh- 
urchaire  in  honour  of  God  and  [SS.]  Tighernach  and

the  church  for  [the  good  of]  his  own  soul,  and  so  on. — 
Feidhlim[idh],  son  of  John,  son  of  Philip  Ua  Raighilligh, 
namely,  one  fit  to  be  king  of  Breifni  for  hospitality  and

of  the  Saxons  in  Ireland,  after  going  there  at  his  [Furni-

a  son  of  maledictions  for  malice  and  a  devil  for  evils  [was] 
that  Furnival  and  what  the  learned  of  Ireland  say  of  him 
is  that  there  came  not  from  Herod,  by  whom  was  crucified 
Christ,  downwards  one  so  bad  for  ill  deeds. — Eogan,  son 
of  Pedras,  son  of  Saerdalach  Ua  Breislen,  .namely,  chief

namely,  preceptor^  of  the  schools  of  Ireland  and  Scotland 
in  poetry  and  in  erudition  and  a  man  that  kept  a  general 
guest-house  for  [learned]  retinues  and  for  the  pilgrims  of

Domnall,  son  of  John  Ua  Eaighilligh  and  [2]  John,  son

Bocliartaigli,  that  is,  the  party  guarding  Domnall,  proved  [1^54] 
false  to  Ua  Dochartaigh  :  namely,  made  himself  prisoner

with  Domnall.  Eughraidhe  and  Mac  Uibilin  were  attack-

1456.    A  great  tale  in  Ireland  this  year  :  to  wit,  Ua  Neill 
died ;  that  is,  Eogan,^  son  of  Mall  junior,   son  of  Niall 
Mor,  namely,  father  of  Henry  (that  is,  [the]  Ua  Neill). 


Ua  Domnaill  was  slain  this 
year,  namely,  Domnall,  son  of 
NiallUaDomnaill(theEough) 
and  his  brother,  namely,  Aedli 
the  Eed,  was  captured  and 
Mac  Suibhne  was  captured 
likewise.  And  by  Ua  Neill 
(namely,  Henry)  was  that 
done  and  in  CeD-Baithin 
moreover  it  was  done  and  so 
on. 

Domnaill  the  Red,  namely,  brother  of  Ua  Domnaill  and 
Mac  Suibne  of  Fanad  went  on  three  horses  from  their 
own  host  to  bring  [back]  tidings  of  Ua  Neill  with 
them  and  came  od  the  green  of  Cuil-mic-an-trein.  The 
sons  of  Ua  Neill,  namely,  Toirdelbach  the  Red,  and 
Ruaidhri,  had  gone  that  time  a  short  distance  from  the 
castle.     And  they  saw  the  three  horsemen  and  pursued

Great  war  arose  between 
Ua  Neill  and  the  king  of  Tir- 
Oonaill,  namely,  Domnall, 
son  of  Niall  Ua  Domnaill. 
O'Neill,^  namely,  Henry  and 
Mag  Uidhir  went  [with]  a 
large  host  into  Inis-Eogain 
and  a  fortified  position  was 
taken  by  them  a  short  dis-

miles  west  of  Londonderry  {ib.,  p.

The  castle  was  wrested  from 
O'Dogherty  (of  Inishowen)  by 
O'Donnell  in  U40  {F.  M.).  To 
retake  it  was  O'Neill's  object  on

between  Mag  Uidhir,  namely, 
Thomas  and  Ua  Euairc, 
namely,  Lochlann,  son  of 
Tadhg  Ua  Ruairc.  Great 
defeat  was  inflicted  upon  Ua 
Euairc  and  upon  Teallach- 
Eathach  and  upon  Teallach- 
Dunchadha  by  Mag  Uidhir 
and  by  Brian,  son  of  Philip 
Mag  Uidhir :  namely,  the 
defeat  of  the  Graine,  a  place 
where  a  great  multitude  of 
them  were  [either]  slain  or 
drowned,  so  that  the  people 
of  Ua  Euairc  carried  with 
them  sixteen  of  the  heads  of 
their  enemies  to  the  town  of 
Mag  Uidhir  and  placed  them 
on  the  palisade  of  the  court- 
yard in  sight  of  the  Men  of 
Ireland  and  so  on. 
to  Gort-an-fedain.^  There  a  battalion  of  kern  and  a  bat- 
talion of  gallowglasses  of  the  people  of  Ua  Euairc  over- 
took bim.  Then  Mag  Uidhir  and  Brian  Mag  Uidhir, 
[with]  the  six  that  were  on  horses  and  the  three  score 
kern,  turned  on  them  and  routed  the  people  of  Ua  Euairc 
spiritedly,  felicitously  on  that  occasion  and  inflicted  the 
defeat  of  Ath-Conaill  and  of  the  Graine — nameh^,  a  river 
that  is  between  Fir-Manach  and  the  Breifne — upon  them. 
Mag  Uidhir  and  his  people  then  returned  with  spoils  joy- 
fully. And  the  kern  of  Mag  Uidhir  carried  with  them 
sixteen  heads  of  the  nobles  of  the  people  of  Ua  Euairc  to 
the  town  of  Mag  Uidhir  and  they  were  placed  on  the 
palisade  of  the  court-yard  of  Mag  Uidhir  and  so  on.

(A) 

Great  war  [arose]  this  year 
between  Mag  Uidhir,  namely, 
king  of  Fir-Manach  and  Ua 
Euairc,  namely,  Lochlann, 
son  of  Tadhg  Ua  Ruairc. 
Mag  Uidhir  and  Ua  Euairc 
appointed  a  meeting  with 
each  other  opposite  Ath- 
Conaill.  Mag  Uidhir  and 
Brian,  son  of  Philip  Mag 
Uidhir,  went  [with]  a  few 
people — that  is,  six  horsemen 
and  three  score  footmen—  to 
meetUa  Euairc.  When  Ua 
Ruairc  and  the  Tellach-Eat- 
hach  and  Tellach-Dunchadha 
learned  that  Mag  Uidhir  was 
[accompanied  by  only]  a 
small  force,  they  gave  him  a 
hostile  meeting.^  When  Mag 
Uidhir  saw  the  deceit  prac- 
tised on  him,  he  went  forward

of  Spring  in  the  sixth  entry,  it  may- 
be inferred  that  the  item  was  copied 
from  a  Chroniele  wherein  the  A.D. 
began  with  March  2í  (not  Jan.  ] ). 
This,  however,  unless  (which  is 
not  unlikely)  the  alt<;rnative  date 
was    added    by    the    transcriber, 


will  not  explain  the  alias  of  the 
final  entry.  The  two  excerpts  are 
manifestly  drawn  from  the  same 
source.

that,  as  they  would  hardly  consent

doned the  place  (in  favour  of  Dun-

[1470] 


^  Foasession,  —  Literally,  hand. 
From  its  situation  (on  Sketrick

castle  was  of  the  utmost  import- 
ance to  Mac  Quillin  (Mac  Uibhi- 
lin) for  the  retention  of  DuíferÍD. 


^  Airang. — The  meaning  of  this 
word  is  unknown  to  me.

The  castle  of  Oghmagh 
was  taken  this  year  by  Ua 
Neill,  namely,  by  Henry, 
son  of  Eogan,  from  the  sons 
of  Art  Ua  Neill. 


(A) 
The  castle  of  the  Oghma- 
gh  was  taken  this  year  by 
Ua  Neill,  namely,  by  Henry, 
son  of  Eogan.  And  it  is 
thus  it  was  taken :  to  wit, 
an  encounter  was  given  by  the  sons  of  Ua  Neill  and  by 
the  sons  of  Art  to  each  other,  in  the  beginning  of  the 
Winter,  as  narrated  before  here.^  And  the  sons  of  Art 
were  defeated  and  two  sons  of  Art  and  many  others  with 
them  were  slain  therein.  And  the  sons  of  Ua  Neill  went 
from  that  round  the  castle  and  Ua  Neill  came  to  them. 
And  Sile,  daughter  of  Niall  Ua  Domnaill  the  Eough,  wife 
of  Niall,  son  of  Art  Ua  Neill,  was  in  the  castle,  Niall  him- 
self and  the  other  part  of  his  kinsmen  having  gone  to  join 
Ua  Domnaill  and  the  Conallians.  And  Ua  Neill  was 
beneath  the  castle  from  the  beginning  of  Winter  to  the 
end  of  Spring.  The  sons  of  Art  [then]  submitted  to  Ua 
Neill  and  the  castle  was  given  to  him  and  Ua  Neill  gave 
it  to  his  own  son,  namely,  to  Conn  and  he  himself  went 
to  his  house  with  triumph  of  victory  and  rout  and  so  on. — 
A  great  hosting  [was  made]  this  year  by  Mac  William^  de 
Burgh  into  the  Lower  [northern]  part  of  Connacht,  to  aid 
the  son^  of  Brian  Ua  Conchobuir  and  they  went  against 
the  castle*  of  Sligech  and  the  sons  of  Eogan  Ua  Concho- 
buir were  [gone]  to  join  Ua  Domnaill,  but'^''  Domnall,  son  of 
Eogan,  went  into  the  castle.  And  the  fortification  of  the 
door  was  broken  down  by  Mac  William  and  [then]  peace 
was  made  by  them. — Trian-ConghaiP  was  all  [re-]taken 


[1471 


*  Castle. — It  was  taken  the  pre- 
vious year  by  O'Donnell  from  the

Kalends  of  Jan.  on  Monday  [4th  of  the  moon,]  a.d. 
1487.  Mac  Aedhagain  of  the  Anghaile^,  namely,  Tadhg, 
son  of  Gilla-na-naera  Mac  Aedhagain,  was  slain  by  the  sons 
of  Uaithne,  son  of  Trial  TJa  Ferghail,  that  is,  by  Tadhg, 
son  of  Uaithne  and  another  [son]. — Huaidhri  the  Green 
and  Donn  junior,  two  sons  of  Donn,  son  of  Philip  Mag 
Uidhir  of  the  [battle- ]axe,  died  this  year  after 
Christmas. — Tadhg  the  Black,  son  of  Finghin  Mac  Gilla- 
Padraig,  tanist  of  Ossory,  died. — Niall,  son  of  John  the 
Tawny,  son  of  Eogan  Ua  Neill,  was  taken  by  Niall,  son 
of  Toirdelbach  the  Red,  son  of  Henry,  son  of  Eogan  Ua 
Neill,  on  his  being  found  leaving  the  town  of  Ua  Xeill, 
namely,  of  Conn,  son  of  Henry  Ua  Neill,  at  the  end  of  a 
month  of  Springe. — Great  wind  this  year,  on  the  6th  of 
the  Kalends  of  March  [Feb.  24],  whereby  many  houses 
and  churches  were  unroofed  and  whereby  were  broken 
trees  and  cots  and  gardens  and  so  on. — Brian  Ua  Ruairc 
the  Red,  namely,  son  of  Tighernan,  son  of  Tadhg,  son  of 
Tighernan  Ua  Ruairc — to  wit,  the  most  courageous  leader 
that  was  in  Lower  [northern]  Connacht  at  that  time — 
was  wounded  with  an  arrow,  on  the  6th  of  the  Ides  [10th]

Ruairc,  namely,  son  of  Feidhlimidh,  son  of  Donchadh, 
son  of  Tighernan  junior,  was  done  that  slaying.  Ua 
Domnaill,  namely,  Aedh  the  Red,  went,  because  of  that 
slaying,  against  the  castle^  of  Ua  Ruairc  (namely,  Feidh- 
limidh) and  it  was  taken  by  him  and  three  of  the  people

But  this  only  serves  to  supply 
a  two-fold  proof  of  the  forgery. 
For  the  Roman  initial  day  was

Veris  exordia  tempore  prisco  (Cal. 
Galha,  HampsoD,  p.  399.  Cf.  Ide-

other  hand,  reasoning  as  repre- 
sented, the  putative  author,  whose

Feidhlimidh:  Ua  Concobuir,  died  in  the  Spring  thÍB  year. 
— The  vicar  of  Claen-inis,  namely,  Brian,  grandson  of  the 
bishop"^  TJa  Corcrain,  died  this  year. — Thomas  Mag  Uidhir, 
namely,   son  of  Thomas  junior,  son  of  another  Thomas 
(namely,  the  black  Gillie),  was  taken  in  Achadh- 
beithi  by  Mag  Uidhir  junior,  namely,  by  John,  son  of 
Philip,  son  of  Thomas  Mag  Uidhir  and  eight  of  his  people 
were  taken  with  him  there  and  eight  horses  were  wrested 
from  them — and  on  the  9th  of  the  Kalends  of   October 
[Sep.    23^]    that   was   done — and    the   stone   church   of 
Achadh-beithi  was  burned  against  the  will  of  Mag  Uidhir 
that  day. — Edmund,  son  of  Cathal  Mac  Maghnusa  junior, 
was  drowned  in  the  port  of  Tamnach-riada^  and  buried  in 
the  monastery  of  Lis-gabail,  on  the  8th  of  the  Kalends  of 
August   [July  25]. — Battle  was  given  between  the  two 
kings  that  were  in  Saxon-land  this  time — that  is,  the  king 
that  was  a  Welshman  and  the  young  man  whom  we  men- 
tioned before,  who  was  called  king  in  the  town  of  Ath- 
cliath — and   the  battle  went   against   that   young  man. 
And  it  was   impossible   to   reckon,  or  to  estimate,  how 
many  thousands  were  slain  then.     And  the  greater  part 
of  what  went  east  of  the  Irish  were  slain  there,  around 
Thomas,  son  of  the  Earl  of  Kildare  and  many  other  noble 
Foreign  youths.     And  about  the  feast  of  [Holy]   Cross 
was   fought^*  that  battle  and  so  on. — Ua  Mail-Conaire, 
namely,  Sigraidh,  son  of  John  Ua  Mail-Conaire  the  Eed, 
that  is,  the  oUam  of  Ua  Concobuir  of  Connacht  in  history, 
died. — Ua  Domnaill,  namely,  Aedh  the  Red,  went  [with] 
a  host  into  Magh-Luirg  and  houses  and  crops  were  burned 
by  him  there.     And  some  of  Magh-Luirg  itself,  namely, 
Ruaidhri  of  the   Oak-wood,    son  of  Muirghis,  son 
of  Aedh  Mac  Diarmada,   profaned  the  church  of  Braigh-

Tawny,  on  the  sons  of  Conn,  son  of  Aedh.  the  Tawny  and 
Godfrey  Ua  Moilcroibe  was    slain  by  him  there. — The 
sons    of    Donchadh,  son    of    Aedh    Mag    Uidhir,    were 
plundered  this  year,  shortly   before   Christmas,    by  the 
son  of  Ua  Domnaill,  namely,  by  Aedh  junior,  son  of  Aedh 
the  Eed,  son  of  Kiall  the  Eough.     And  the  prey  was 
carried  by  him  to  Ath-Senaigh  and  killed^  there  straight- 
way, namely,  400  cows.     And  the  warders  of  the  castle, 
namely,  the  sons  of  Aed  Ua  Domnaill  the  Foreign,  gave 
the  castle  to  Aedh,  in  despite  of  Ua  Domnaill  (namely, 
Aedh  the  Red). — Ua  Dalaigh  of  Breifne  (namely,  John, 
son  of  William,  son  of  Aedh),  professor  in  bardism,  died  a 
fortnight  before  November  Day  [Mon.,  Oct.  18]  precisely. 
— The  wife  of  Ua  Ruairc,  namely,  Mor,  daughter  of  Eogan 
Ua  Neill,  was   slain  in  treachery  by  a  kern  of  her  own 
people,  namely,  the  son  of  Cathal  Ua  Ardlamaigh  and  him- 
self was  burned  afterwards. — Ua  Neill  and  Ua  Domnaill 
[were]  in  two  camps  in  face  of  each  other  from  N^ovember 
Day  to  Christmas :  to  wit,  Ua  Neill  in  the  Caircin^^  and 
Ua  Domnaill  in  Druim-bo^^,  without  peace,  without  truce, 
without  war  being  made  between  them,  but  like  that. — 
Ua  Gairmleghaidh,  namely,  Muircertach,   son  of  Henry, 
son  of  Concobur  Ua  Gairmleghaidh,  died  this  year  after 
November  Day. — The  son  of  Mac  Domnaill  of  Scotland 
(that  is,  Aengus),  namely,  one  who  was  called  the  lord 
Aag,  was  slain  in  treachery  by  an  Irish  harper,  namely, 
Diarmait  Ua  Cairpri.     And  in  Inverness  he  was  slain. 

Kalends  of  Jan.  on  Saturday,  [18th  of  the  moon],  A.d.    [1491]

Niall  Ua  Neill  junior,  died  this  year^  between  Christmas 


of  Stranorlar,  co.  Don.  The  op- 
ponents were  thus  9  miles  apart ; 
but,  had  O'Neill  moved  into  Tyr- 
connell  from  the  S.,  O'Donnell 
would  have  raided  Tyrone  from  the

Ua  Ferghail,  was  executed  in  the  Harvest  by  his  own  two  [1491 J 
brothers,  namely,  Eughraidhe  and  Gil(a-na-naem. — Yery 
great  war  between  Ua  Neill,  namely,  Conn,  son  of  Henry 
and  Ua  Domnaill,  namely,  Aedh  the  Red,  son  of  Niall 
the  Eough  and  both  went,  in  the  Harvest  of  this  year,  to 
plead  against  each  other  to  the  house  of  the  EarF  of 
Kildare — the  one  that  was  the  Justiciary  in  Ireland  this 
time — and  they  came  from  it  without  peace,  without 
truce  that  was  reliable. — Brian,  son  of  Aedh  the  Foreign, 
son  of  JN^iall  Ua  Domnaill,  was  slain  on  that  war  by 
Henry,  son  of  Henry  Ua  Neill.  And  that  same  man, 
namely,  Henry,  kept  the  country  well,  the  while  Ua  I^eill 
was  in  the  house  of  the  Foreigners. — Echmiledh,  son  of 
Mag  Aenghusa,  was  slain  in  his  own  house,  on  a  night 
incursion,  two  days  and  a  week^  before  November  Hay, 
by  the  sons  of  Mael[-Sh]echlainn,  son  of  Muircertach, 
son  of  Eogan  Ua  Neill. — Great  inclemency  of  wetness 
during  the  greater  part  of  the  Summer  of  this  year  and 
the  self  same  in  Harvest  of  the  same  year,  so  that  likeness 
to  the  extent  of  the  inclemency  was  not  found  since  the 
Deluge  poured  upon  the  world,  so  that  the  corn  of  all 
Ireland,  save  a  little,  failed  and  particularly  in  Fir- 
Manach. — The  wife  of  Dalton,  namely,  wife  of  Thomas, 
son  of  Edmund,  grandson  of  Piers  Dalton,  went  off  with 
the  son  of  Ua  Mechair  this  year. — Ua  Eaighilligh, 
namely,  John,  son  of  Toirdelbach,  son  of  John  Ua 
Eaighilligh,  to  wit,  a  distinguished  youth,  died  this  year 
in  the  beginning^  of  his  felicity  and  was  buried  in  the 
monastery  of  Cavan,  the  25th  day  of  the  month  of 
November,  namely,  the  feast  day  of  Catherine.  And 
John,  son  of  Cathal,  son  of  Eogan  Ua  Eaighilligh,  was 
made  Ua  Eaighilligh.  Cathal,  son  of  Toirdelbach  Ua 
Eaighilligh,    drew    the    Earl    of   Kildare    on    that    Ua 


^Beginning. — Namely,  just  after  being  made  chief.

CoDn,  son  of  the  CalbacL,  was  slain  by  some  of  the  people  [1492] 
of  the  son  of  the  Earl  of  Ormond,  nameh^  of  James^^,  son 
of  John,  son  of  James  Butler,  that  is,  by  Master  Gart^^. 
And  Master  Gart  himself  was  taken  in  the  same  place 
by  the  Earl  of  Kildare  in  "Winter. — The  sons  of  Don- 
chadh  Mag  Uidhir,  namely,  the  black  Gillie, 
and  Philip  and  the  son  of  the  black  Gillie, 
namely,  Edmond,  went  on  an  inroad  on  Senadh  of  Mac 
Maghnusa  and  a  foray  was  made  by  them  there  and  two 
inoffensive  farmers  were  slain  by  them.  But  themselves 
were  taken  in  their  pride  and  the  Lord  visited  their 
iniquity.  And  they  were  turned  to  flight  and  14  of  their 
elect  sunk  as  lead  in  the  waters  and  went  down  like  a 
stone  into  the  depth.  And,  because  the  Lord  was  not 
with  them,  when  men  arose  against  them,  without  doubt 
the  water  swallowed  them  up,  as  saith  the  Psalmist.  For 
the  Lord  sent  his  anger  and  it  devoured  them.  And 
Edmond,  son  of  the  black  Gillie  and  two  of  his 
people  were  taken  there  and  the  prey  was  wrested  from 
them.  And  at  end  of  the  year  this  was  done,  namely, 
the  Saturday  ^*  before  Christmas. 

(This  year  was  born  Cathal  junior  [Mac  Maghnusa, 
namely],  son  of  [Gilla-]Beta[i]n^^,  namely,  of  Thomas^^ 
that  is,  on  the  feast  day  of  Beradh^^).

of  Domnall,  son  of  Mael[-Sh]echlainn,  son  of  the 
freckled  Gillie  Mac  Gilla-ruaidh,  died  this  year

turned  on  those  and  13  men  of  them  were  slain  by  him, 
under  a  good  horseman  of  the  people  of  Mag  Mathgamna. 
And  were  [it]  not  [for]  the  nearness  of  the  night  to  them, 
a  crushing  defeat  had  been  inflicted  by  Ua  Domnaill.  And 
Ua  Domnaill  came  to  his  house  victoriously  on  that 
occasion,  but  that  he  brought  neither  peace,  nor  truce,  nor 
submission  with  him. — Henry,  son  of  Mael[-Sh]echlainn,

broken  before  that.  And  Henry,  son  of  Brian  Ua  Neill 
and  his  wife,  namely,  daughter  of  Cu-Uladh  Ua  Neill, 
were  slain  by  them  there  and  Henry,  son  of  Mael-

were  slain  the  same  night,  before  they  desisted  from  that

namely,  by  Feidhlimidh,  son  of  Aedh,  son  of  Art,  son

Foreign  youth  of  the  people  of  Alexander,  son  of  Thomas 
Plunket  and  Edmund,  son  of  Andrew,  son  of  t  he  blue 
Gillie  Tuite,  were  slain  this  year. — Mag  Mathgamna 
and  his  sons  and  his  kinsmen  made  an  incursion  into  the 
land  of  the  sons  of  Redmund  Mag  Mathgamna  and  it  was 
burned  by  them  and  they  turned  not  until  they  got 
pledges  from  the  sons  of  Mag  Mathgamna. — The  son  of 
Ua  Domnaill,  namely.  Conn,  son  of  Aedh  the  Red,  son  of 
JSiall  the  Rough,  sat  under  the  castle  of  Sligech  this  year

Saturday  to  follow  his  son  to  Sligech.  And  he  had  done 
nothing  more  than  enter  the  town  when  it  was  told  him 
that  a  host  of  Lower  Connacht — at  instigation  of  Brian, 
son  of  Tadhg,  son  of  Eogan  Ua  Concobair — and  the 
Calbach,  son  of  Bomnall,  son  of  Eogan  Ua  Concobair

Domnaill  from  the  castle.  And  they  thought  not  that 
Ua  Domnaill  himself  was  nearer  to  them  than  the  house 
of  the  king  of  Scotland.  And  neither  fear  nor  flight  did 
Ua  Domnaill  at  those  tidings,  but  took  with  him  what  was 
of  his  own  people  under  the  castle,  both  foot  and  horse, 
and  struck  out  [i.e.  went]  against  the  host  and  defeated

Purgatorium  S.  Patricii,  in  Du 
Cange  (ed.  Henschel,  V.  523). 

In  the  AA.  SS.  (Mar.  t.  2),  two 
sections  of  the  Ap.  to  the  Acts  of 
St.  Patrick  are  devoted  to  the  Pur- 
gatory :  V.De  Purg.  S.  P.,  587-9  ; 
VI.  De  modo  purgationis  .  .  .  olim 
et  nuper,  589-92. 

An  annalistic  excerpt  from  a 
source  not  indicated  (ib.  590)  states 
that,  in  1494,  a  Canon  Regular  of 
Eymstadt,  having  made  the  pil- 
grimage, was  demanded  an  exor- 
bitant sum  as  the  price  of  admis- 
sion by  the  local  bishop,  chief  and 


prior,  in  turn.  Having  convinced 
them  of  his  inability  to  pay,  he  was 
at  length  allowed  to  enter  the  cave ; 
when,  to  his  disappointment,  he  be- 
held no  vision !  Whereupon,  hast- 
ening to  Rome,  he  revealed  the 
cheat  toAlexander  VI.,  and  was  sent 
back  with  Letters  to  the  three  in 
question  to  destroy  the  Purgatory. 
The  main  statements,  it  escaped 
the  Bollandists,  will  not  bear 
scrutiny.  The  Curia,  in  the  first 
place,  had  learned  too  severe  a 
lesson  as  to  the  credibility  of 
documents  duly  formulated  and 
attested   (n.    1,    sup.),  to    issue  a

slain  by  Brian  the  Tawny,  son  of  Rugliraidhe,  son  of 
Cathal  Ua  Ferghail. — The  cave  of  the  Purgatory  of  Pat- 
rick^ on  Loch-ghearg[-derg,  co.  Don.]  was  broken  this 
year  by  the  Guardian  of  Dun-na-Grall  and  by  the  repre- 
sentatives^ of  the  bishop  in  the  deanery  of  Loch-Erne,  by 
authorization  of  the  Pope,  about  the  feast  of  Patrick  of 
this  year  ;  it  being  understood  by  every  one  in  general 
from  the  History  of  the  Knight^  and  other  old  Books  that 
this  was  not  the  Purgatory  Patrick  got  from  God, 
although  they  were,  every  one,  visiting  it. — Peace^  was 
made  by  the  two  Ua  Neills,  namely,  Domnall  and  Henry 
junior,  at  the  end  of  the  Spring  of  this  year  and  the  son 
of  Domnall  Ua  Neill,  namely,  Aedh,  was  liberated  with- 
out ransom  and  other  large  donatives  of  horses  and  of 
apparel  and  of  increase  of  every  valuable  besides  were 
given  to  Domnall,  in  consideration  of  putting  the  name  of 
lord  from  him. — O'Domnaill,  namely,  Aedh  the  E-ed, 
son  of  Niall  the  Rough,  put  his  lordship  from  him,  on  the 
7th  of  the  Kalends  of  the  month  of  June  [May  26]  of  this 
year,  in  Carna  of  the  Termon  of  Mag  Craith.  [This  took 
place]  on  Friday,  the  day  of  the  week  and  the  Tuesday 
after  that  his  son,  namely.  Conn,  was  made  O'Domnaill. —

mandate  on  the  verbal  plaint  of  a 
palmer.  Furthermore,  it  strains 
credulity  that  a  charge  of  the 
kind  was  taken  as  proven,  without 
those  affected,  includiug  a  bishop 
who  was  Papal  Collector  (Thei. 
495),  being  given  an  opportunity 
of  vindication.  Finally  and  most 
fatally,  at  the  time  there  was  no 
local  bishop  to  have  Letters  ad- 
dressed to ;  Alexander  VI.  having 
transferred  Courcey  to  Ross  in 
1494  and  left  Clogher  vacant  until 
1502  (Ware,  186). 

Settled  procedure  and  the  textual 
data  prove   that,  moved  by  com- 


plaints touching  the  origin  and 
practice,  the  Pope  appointed  the 
Vicar  of  Lough  Erne  deanery  and 
the  Guardian  of  Donegal  Monas- 
tery to  inquire  and  determine. 
The  result  was  the  suppression  of 
the  Purgatory  on  the  ground  of 
false  ascription  to  St.  Patrick.

went  into  its  possession  on  the  vigil  [Aug.  14]  of  the  first 
feast  of  Mary  in  the  Harvest  this  year,  the  decision  having 
gone  in  their  favour  therein. ^'^ — Yery  great,  grievous 
famine  throughout  all  Ireland  this  year,  to  which  the 
folk  of  this  time  saw  not  the  equal,  nor  like  ;  for  there 
was  scarce  an  angle  or  recess  in  all  Ireland  wherein  died 
not  many  persons  of  that  hunger.  And  in  Meath  the 
peck  of  wheat  used  to  be  bought  for  five  ounces  and  the 
gallon  of  beer  for  six  pence  and  amongst  the  Gaidhil  the 
slender  bundle  of  oats  used  be  bought  for  an  in-calf  cow, 
or  ten  pails  of  oats  for  the  same  [kind  of]  cow  and  the  beef, 
for  a  mark  and  the  milch-cow,  for  two  in-calf  cows  and 
for  a  shilling  or  more. — O'JSTeill,  namely,  Henry  junior, 
son  of  Henry,  son  of  Eogan,  went  [with]  a  large  host  into 
Tir-Conaill  this  year  and  great  devastations  were  done  in 
Fanad  by  them  in  the  beginning  and  Ua  Domnaill  junior, 
namely.  Conn,  son  of  Aedh  the  Hed,  arose  against  the 
host,  after  Fanad  was  left  by  them,  namely,  at  Bel-atha- 
daire.^^  And  defeat  was  inflicted  on  O'Domnaill  then  and 
he  himself  was  slain  there  and  over  eight  score  were  slain 
along  with  him  and  his  two  brothers,  namely,  Niall  the 
Eough  and  Domnall  and  the  son  of  Mac  Suibne  and  16 
men  along  with  them  were  taken  there.  N^ow,  these  were 
the  noble  persons  that  were  slain  in  company  of  Ua  Dom- 
naill in  this  defeat  :  to  wit,  Domnall,  son  of  Maghnus  the 
Red,  son  of  Domnall,  son  of  Niall  Ua  Domnaill  the  Rough 
and  Edmond,  son  of  Feidlimidh  the  Swarthy,  son  of  Mall

omits  Cobran  (for  the  reason  just 


given) ;  and  doubts  not  that  Kell-

is  among  the  Ir.  SS.  who  were  only

Aodh  the  Eed,  follows  him  through  Meath  into  Munster 
with  a  small  force  and  they  march  together  into  Ella  and 
take  the  castle  of  Cenn-tuirc^  and  harry  the  country  and 
go  after  that  into  great  Desmond  and  take  the  castle  of 
the  Pailis^  and  the  castles  along  the  Maing  in  [their] 
entirety^  and  go  safe  backwards  into  county  Limerick. 
Afterwards,  they  make  reunion*  of  the  host  and  the  Geral- 
dines  of  Munster  assemble  under  James,  son  of  the  Earl  of 
Desmond  and  the  Foreigners  of  Munster  [assemble]  beside' 
and  Mag  Carthaigh  the  Swarthy,  namely,  Domnall,  son 
of  Diarmait,  son  of  Finghin  and  Cormac  junior,  son  of 
Cormac,  son  of  Tadhg  and  the  Foreigners  and  Gaidhil 
of  Meath.  and  Leinster  and  [all]  go  to  Limerick.  And 
Toirdelbach,  son  of  Tadhg  O'Briain,  king  of  Thomond 
and  Mac  Conmara  and  the  Sil-Aodha^  and  Clann-Ricaird 
mustered  a  large  host  against  them.  And  the  Earl  with 
his  host  went  through  Belach-na-fadhbaighe  and  Belach- 
an-gamna,  until  he  reached  a  very  good  bridge^  of  wood 
that  was  made  by  O'Briain  across  the  Shannon  and  he 
breaks  the  bridge  and  remains  a  night  in  camp  in  the 
country.  And  O'Briain  with  his  host  made  a  camp  by  their 
side,  so  that  each  portion  of  them  used  to  hear  the  con- 
versation, or  the  story-telling,  that  was  being  done  by  the 
other  half.  Upon  the  morrow,  the  Earl  arranges  his  host 
and  places  the  Foreigners  and  Gaidhil  of  Munster  in  front 
and  places  the  Foreigners  of  Meath  and  Ath-cliath  on  the 


[16101 


But  the  interpolation  is  the  re- 
verse of  probable.  Had  the  in- 
vaders (who,  O'Donnell's  rearward 
post  proves,  were  in  flight)  turned 
from  within  easy  reach  of  safety 
and  marched  eight  miles  through 
the  territory  of  the  pursuing  enemy, 
few  had  pad  to  tell  the  tale  to 

the  Ulster  Annalist. 

The  bridge,  it  is  thus  safe  to  in- 
fer,   was   a   short    distance   w.  of 


Limerick,  whence  the  route  lay 
through  Moin  -  na  -  b.  {Bog  of  the 
Friars),  Monabraher  (Long  Pave- 
ment), N.  of  the  river,  direct  to  the 
city. 

The  ambiguity  would  be  re- 
moved, were  B.-na-f.  {Pass  of  the 
Forest)  and  B.-an.-g.  {Pass  of  the 
Calf)  not  obsolete.  To  locate  them 
B.  of  Limerick  (O'D.  v.  1306)  is 
gratuitous.  _

whereon  he  took  the  castle  of  Bel-Fersti  and  broke 
down  the  castle^  of  Mac  Eoin  and  harried  the  Grlens  and 
much  of  the  country.  And  he  took  [Aedh]  the  son  of

— Great  raids  were  made  by  O'Domnaill  in  Gailenga, 
when  he  burned  and  harried  the  country  to  Cruachan  of 
Gailenga  and  O'E-uadhain  and  many  others  are  slain

horses  and  their  accoutrement  from  them  and  whereby 
he  humbled  them  then,  so  that  lordship  of  Tir-Eogain

(namely,  Art  junior)  and  many  persons  were  hired  on 
each  side  by  them  and  they  were  long  in  camp  opposite

was  made  by  them  and  they  went  to  meet  each  other  on 
the  bridge  of  Ard-stratha^  and  gossipred  was  made  by

confirmation  of  the  old  charters,  were  granted  by  TJa

son  of  the  Earl  collects  his  full  muster  and  O'Briain, 
namely,  Toirdelbach,  son  of  Tadhg,  goes  with  the  nobles 
of  his  district  to  aid  James,  son  of  the  Earl.  But  the 
Earl  of  Kildare  went  ofí  felicitously,  prosperously,  before 
those  hosts  encountered  each  other. — A  flotilla  of  long

He  harries  and  burns  the  island  of  Cuil-na-noir[th]er^,

sway  on  them. — Mac  William  de  Burgh,  namely,  John, 
son  of  Ricard,  was  slain  this  year  by  his  own  kinsmen 
in  treachery. — A  hosting^  by  the  Justiciary,  namely,  by 
Gerald  junior,  son  of  another  Gerald,  into  Breifne  shortly 
before  Lammas  and  great  damage  was  done  in  the  Breifne 
on  that  expedition,  to  wit :  O'Raghalligh,  namely,  Aodh 
son  of  Cathal  O'Ragballigh  and  Philip,  his  brother  and  a 
son  of  Philip  and  Garret,  son  of  Edmond,  son  of  Thomas 
O'Raghalligh,  [were  fclain  by  him.  But  (for)  one  thing, 
there  were  slain  14  of  the  nobles  and  chief  worthies  of 
the  Muintir-Raghalligh,  besides  a  multitude  of  the 
(common)  people.  Mac  Caba,  namely,  Maine,  son  of

in  which^  were  the  Clann-Aedha-buidhe,  and  O'Domnaill 
[wasj  in  the  illness  of  the  wound  aforesaid.  He  burned 
and  raided  great  part  of  the  country  and  the  son  (namely, 
Aodh)  of  Niall,  son  of  Conn,  comes  to  meet  O'Neill  and 
accepts  the  stipend^  of  O'Neill,  who  returns  safe  to  his 
house  afterwards. — Great  preys  were  made  by  O'Domnaill 
on  the  descendants  of  Brian  Mag  Uidhir  and  they  were 
eaten  among  themselves  and  peace  was  made  with  them 
after  that. — The  castle  of  Aine  was  taken  from  John, 
son  of  the  Earl  of  Desmond,  by  James,  son  of  the  Earl 
of  Desmond  and  he  sits  then  under  the  castle  of  Loch-gar 
and  it  was  in  great  straits  from  him,  until  the  Sil-Briain* 
and  Sil-CerbailP  and  Sil-Aodha^  put  him  from  it. — Aodh, 
son  of  Niall,  son  of  Conn,  lord  of  Trian-Conghail,  went 
on  a  march  into  Coill-Ulltach''  and  preys  were  seized 
by  him.  Mall,  son  of  Brian,  son  of  Niall  the  Foreign — 
one  who  was  in  contention  [with  Aodh]  respecting  lord- 
ship of  Trian-Conghail — follows  them  with  a  pursuing 
party  and  the  son  of  Brian  is  slain  and  the  Coill  is 
harried  completely  and  the  sway  of  the  territory  remains 
with  the  son  of  Niall  from  that  out. — The  bishop^  of 
Rath-both,  namely,  Menma  Mac  Carmaic,  rested  in  Christ.

Great  war  arose  between  Ua  Domnaill  and  O'Neill  and 
great  hiring  of  persons  was  done  by  them  both  and  great 
raids  were  made  by  Maghnus  Ua  Domnaill  on  the  son  of 
O'Neill,  namely,  Henry  the  Stammerer  and  very  much  of 
the  country  was  burned  from  the  Mountain  inward^  by 
Ua  Domnaill. — Other  raids  also  were  made  by  Brian, 
son  of  Conn  O'Neill,  in  Cenel-Moen. — War  arose  between 
John,  son  of  Conn  O'Neill  and  the  descendants  of  Aodh 
O'Neill.  John  unites  with  O'Domnaill  because  of  O'Neill 
being  with  the  descendants  of  Aodh.  O'Domnaill  goes 
[with]  a  host  into  Tir-Eogain  and  burns  Cenel-Feradhaigh 
and  by  the  [river]  Una. — A  French  knight  came  on  his 
pilgrimage^  to  the  Purgatory  of  Patrick  this  year. 
O'Domnaill  joins  friendship  with  him  and  brings  him 
with  him  to  his  house  and  does  great  honour  to  him  and 
gives  horses  and  an  African[?]  ring  to  him  and  escorts  him 
safe  to  his  ship.  It  comes  of  the  friendship  of  O'Domnaill 
with  him,  that  he  sent  a  ship  full  of  ordnance  and  of  guns 
[capable]  of  breaking  a  castle,  in  charge  of  the  deputy  of 
the  king^  of  Scotland,  to  O'Domnaill.  O'Domnaill  hauls 
the  ship  with  him  to  Sligech  and  himself  and  part  of  his 
host  go  and  sit  under  the  town.  And  O'Neill  [was] 
at  war  with  him  after  that  and  Mac  Diarmata  and  from 
the  Mountain  down*  were  at  war  with  him  before  that.

He  breaks  down  quarters  of  the  town  and  takes  it  on  the  [1510]

They  burn  and  destroy  the  country  on  each  side,  until

O'Cerbaill).  And  they  sit  down  round  the  place  and  it  is 
broken  to  the  ground  and  the  warders  fly.  And  though 
the  father  of  that  Earl  was  a  week  previously^  under  that

burned  and  broken  down  at  first  by  them.  And  raids  and  [1517] 
burnings  were  done  by  tbem  to  [lit.  on]  the  wall  of  Sligech 
and  on  the  ehurch[es]  of  Cairpre  and  they  were  in  exile 
this  year.-— A  GeneraP  Chapter  was  [held]  in  Rome  this 
year  by  the  Friars  Minor  of  Christendom  in  their  entirety, 
through  grace  of  the  Holy  Ghost  and  through  favour  of 
Pope  Leo  X.  And,  amongst  the  things  that  were  deter- 
mined then,  it  was  decided  that  the  Minister  of  the  Friars 
of  [Stricter]  Observance  should  be  over  the  Friars  in 
their  entirety  and  that  only  a  Yicar,  or  Master,  should 
be  over  the  Friars  of  Common  Life.  And  every  mon- 
astery of  Common  Life  which  should  have  two-thirds  of 
the  community  unanimous  to  have  it  of  [Stricter]  Obser- 
vance, it  should  be  obligatory  on  the  Minister  of  the 
Friars  of  [Stricter]  Observance  to  take  it  to  him  and  that 
it  should  be  under  their  obedience  from  that  out. — Raids 
hard  to  count  were  done  by  O'Domnaill  on  O'Neill,  at 
instigation  of  Conn,  son  of  Niall,  son  of  Art  [O'Neill] 
and  he  went  safe  with  very  large  cattle  spoil.  — A  hosting 
by  O'Domnaill,  with  the  nobles  of  Cenel- Conaill  around 
him,  whereon  he  burned  Tir-Eogain  before  him,^  until  he 
reached  Coill-ichtarach.^  And,  on  his  being  five  nights 
there  waiting  for  [Aedh]  the  son  of  Niall,  son  of  Conn 
and  [on  the  same]  O'Neill  mustering  a  host  during  that 
space,  O'Domnaill  burns  the  country  on  his  return,  until 
he  reached  Dun-Genainn.  And  O'Neill  abandons  the  town 
to  him  and  the  town  is  afterwards  burned  completely 
and  from  that  inwards  to  the  Mountain*  and  he  comes  safe 
to  his  house.  And  after  the  Clann-Aedha-buidhe^  beino- 
a  week  in  Tir-Conaill  along  with  O'Domnaill,  he  proceeds 
then  to  escort  them  [home]  and  each  part  of  them  goes

French.  And  they  [the  Scots]  succeeded  not  in  giving 
aid  to  him,  except  one  hosting  they  made  on  the  border 
of  the  Saxons  to  destroy  the  country.  And  binding  of 
peace  was  made  by  them  then  to  a  certain  time^.  And, 
though  brave  were  the  nations  and  though  they  were 
many  to  count  against  the  French,  we  learn  from  the  folk 
who  spread  news  and  frequent  ports  that  it  was  with  the 
French  remained  the  victory^  of  the  contest*  and  the 
bravery  of  that  war  against  the  many  nations. 

Very^  great  war  arose  in  Ireland  this  year  and  particu- 
larly between  O'Domnaill,  namely,  Aodh  and  O'Neill, 
namely,  Conn,  son  of  Conn.  And  O'Neill  collected  a 
large  host  in  one  place,  namely,  his  own  sept  and  kinsmen 
and  the  sub-kings  of  Ulster,  that  is,  Mag  Aenghusa  with 
his  kinsmen  aad  Mag  Mathgamna  with  the  nobles  of 
Oirgialla  and  O'hAnnluain  and  Mag  Uidhir  and  O'Cathain 
and  some  of  the  Foreigners  of  Meath  and  a  band  of  Scots 
under  the  son  of  Mac  Domnaill,  namely,  Alexander 
Carrach  and  many  other  gallowglasses  of  the  Clann-Dom- 
naill  and  the  Clann-Sithigh.  And  after  the  assembling 
of  that  large  host,  they  marched  into  Tir-Conaill  and  were 
themselves  and  O'Domnaill  close  to  a  week  in  camp  in  face 
of  one  another,  using  feint  on  each  other.  And  no  notable 
damage  was  done  that  while,  except  an  attack  that  was 
given  by  the  front  of  the  Conallian  host  at  the  entrance 
of  Ath-na-pucan^,  on  the  [river]  Finn  and  the  son  of 
O'Neill,  namely,  Niall,  son  of  Art  junior,  was  dangerously 
wounded  in  his  leg  there.  As  to  O'Neill  afterwards,  he  pro- 
tends to  return  to  Tir-Eogain  and  marched  through  Cois-

'^^  Junior. — Taking  og  literally, 
O'D.  (v.  1352)  infers  that,  as  he 
succeeded  to  Killaloe  in  1482 
(Ware,  p.  47),  "  he  could  not'have 
been  very  young"  at  this  j)eriod." 


But  in  the  Annals,  og  is  frequently 
used  10  mean  second  of  a  name,  or 
station,  irrespective  of  personal 
age.  The  senior  (jnor)  in  this  case  was 
the  bishop  murdered  in  1460,  sup.

without  damage  being  done  to  them,   except  a  band  of     [1522] 
Scots    that    were    taken    from    them   in  the  district  of 
OTlannagain. 

And  [it  was]  not  long  after  that  until  O'Neill  collected 
the  same  host  and  they  went  into  Tir-Conaill  and  he 
destroyed  much  of  the  country,  until  he  went  to  Glenn- 
[Fhjeile  and  they  seized  on  spoil  in  Cenn-maghair.  And, 
when  O'Domnaill  and  the  Conallian  nobles  heard  that,  they 
mustered  and  met  each  other  and  this  is  the  counsel  they 
adopted, — to  go  into  Tir-Eogain.  And  they  left  O'Dom- 
naill and  part  of  his  gallowglasses  in  camp  and  Maghnus 
O'Domnaill  and  the  other  part  of  the  host  and  Conn,  son  of 
Niall,  son  of  Art  O'Neill,  marched  far  out  into  Tir-Eogain. 
And  they  found  great  spoils  and  herds  to  put  before  them, 
so  that  it  was  not  easy  for  them  to  drive  them,  for  the 
amount  of  the  cattle-spoil  that  was  there.  And  they 
came  [off]  safe,  after  killing  a  number  of  persons  and 
after  raiding  much  of  the  country.  And  when  Ua  Neill 
and  his  host  heard  that,  they  turned  on  the  track  of  those 
preys,  destroying  much  of  the  country  and  without  notable 
damage  being  done  to  him  on  that  march. 

Another  war  arose  against  O'Domnaill  this  year  in  the 
province  of  Connacht,  arising  from  the  design  and  pro- 
cedings  of  O'Neill :  to  wit,  the  two  Mac  "Williams  and 
Mac  Diarmata  and  every  force  they  found  united  with 
each  other  against  O'Domnaill  and  a  very  large  host  was 
mustered  by  them  around  Mac  William  of  Clann-Ricaird, 
namely,  Ricard,  son  of  Ulick,  son  of  UKck.  And  O'Cer- 
baill,  namely,  Maelruanaigh  and  the  nobles  of  his  district 
and  Mac  William  de  Burgh  and  Mac  Diarmat  and  O'Con- 
cobuir  the  Brown  and  Mac  Feorais  and  Mac  Maurice  and 
O'Cellaigh  and  the  sons  of  O'Briain,  namely,  Donchadh 
and  Tadhg,  and  the  junior'^  bishop  O'Briain  and  part  of 

The  present  entry  and  the  obit,  1  that  Torlogh  was  "  more  inclined 
1525,  inf.,  there  is  little  doubt,  |  to  martial  affairs  than  well  became 
were  Ware's  authority  for  stating-   I   the  episcopal  function"  (zi.)

the  year  !)  was  to  meet  O'Neill  in 


ANNALS  OF   ULSTER.  545 

Sil-Cennetich^^  went  on  that  hosting.  And  on  their  [1522] 
coming  together,  they  went  without  hindrance  to  Sligech, 
the  Friday  before  the  first  feast'^  of  Mary.  And  O'Neill 
collected  another  large  host  about  that  time,  to  go  to 
meet  the  Connacht  host ;  for  it  was  he  himself  that  was 
drawing  them  on  and  they  promised  to  meet  each  other 
about  the  first  feast  of  Mary  in  the  district  of  O'Domnaill. 
As  to  O'Domnaill  and  the  Cenel-Conaill :  they  were 
mustering  to  meet  each  other  about  that  time,  for  their 
party  and  their  border  friends  abandoned  them.  And, 
when  themselves  came  together,  this  is  the  counsel  they 
adopted, — to  sacrifice  themselves  for  the  sake  of  their 
territory  and  their  land.  And  they  marched  in  one  com- 
pact body,  that  they  might  give  attack  by  day  or  night 
to  the  host  of  O'Neill.  And  on  that  host  of  O'JSTeill  rising 
out,  they  went  into  Cenel-Moen  and  took  a  fortified  position 
at  Loch-monann.  And  when  the  Conallians  heard  that, 
the  result  of  their  counsel  was  to  attack  them  that  night ; 
for  they  left  behind  all  their  horses,  in  order  that  they 
should  have  less  mind  of  flight  or  of  turning  back.  And 
they  considered,  as  the  other  host  was  m.ore  numerous 
than  themselves,  that  the  night  would  be  of  aid  to  them 
and  that  they  would  find  them  without  a  strict  guard. 
And  not  thus  they  were,  for  they  got  accurate  tidings 
and  were  distrustful  respecting  them,  on  account  of  the 
greatness  of  their  courage.  Hence  they  went  on  guard  : 
to  wit,  O'Neill  and  his  horse-host  went  on  watch  a  space 
from  the  camp  and  they  left  a  large  portion  of  the  best 
of  their  gallowglasses  and  Scots  in  [battle-] array  on  the 
ridge  of  the  camp  on  the  other  side.  And  it  seemed  to 
themselves  it  was  great  luck  for  them  to  have  their  foes 
make  for  them  [whilst  they  were]  in  that  array.  As 
to  O'Domnaill  and  the  Conallian  nobles  :  as  they  marched 

Tirhugh  on  this  day.    The  capture  of  Ballyshannon,  they  say,  took  place

they  marshalled  themselves  and  went  into  [battle-] array,  [^522] 
namely,  O'Domnaill  and  Maghnns  O'Domnaill,  his  son, 
royal  heir  of  the  territory  and  the  others  of  his  sons 
that  were  serviceable  and  the  three  Mac  Suibnes  and 
O'Baighill  and  the  Muintir-Dochartaigh  and  a  few  of 
Lower  Connacht.  And  when  they  came  near  to  the  camp 
of  O'Neill,  those  two  hosts  gave  two  huge  shouts  at  one 
another,  so  that  the  Conallian  host  went  out  of  the  array 
and  were  themselves  and  the  host  of  O'Neill  mingled  with 
each  other  and  a  long  while  co-slaying  each  other,  as  they 
had  a  mind  to.  But  [for]  one  thing  however,  the  Con- 
allian host  gained  possession  of  the  camp  of  O'i^eill  and 
broke  through  what  was  opposed  to  them  there  and  the 
camp  with  many  suits  of  armour  remained  with  them. 
And  they  spent  what  was  before  them  of  the  night  in 
slaying  and  in  routing  their  foes.  And  when  O'JN^eill 
heard  that  the  site  of  the  camp  was  in  the  hands  of  his 
enemies,  he  departed  [with]  the  battalion  in  which  he 
was  and  the  part  of  his  people  that  remained  with  him. 
And  the  want  of  their  horses  did  not  allow  the  Conallian 
host  to  pursue  the  horse-host,  as  they  had  a  mind  to. 
And  on  the  coming  of  the  light  of  day  to  them,  it  was 
very  manifest  what  was  slain  on  the  site  of  the  camp  in 
the  conflict  of  that  night,  along  with  heaps  of  slain  of  the 
Clann-Domnaill  and  of  the  Clann-Sitigh  and  of  Scots  and 
of  the  Oirgialla  and  of  the  Men  of  Meath.  So  that  Tir- 
Conaill  was  the  better  during  the  space  of  that  time  [for] 
what  came  to  them  of  horses  and  of  arms  and  of  armour 
and  of  apparel  and  of  provision  and  of  every  thing  it 
were  fitting  for  a  host  to  have.  As  to  the  Conallian  host : 
they  turned  back  to  succour  the  castle  of  SKgech  against 
that  Connacht  host  that  sat  around  it.  And  when  the 
two  Mac  Williams  and  that  large  host  that  was  respon- 
sive to  them  heard  of  the  march  of  O'Domnaill  to  them, 
and  he  after  inflicting  confusion  on  that  other  host,  they 
fled  themselves  from  the  town  and  went  ofí  in  plight  of

until  they  themselves  were  prompted  to  go  against  each  [1524] 
other  and  Eogan  took  the  town  of  Niall,  namely,  the 
crannog  of  Loch-bethach,  which  was  close  by  him.  And 
then  Niall  went^  into  Magh-Luirg  and  [afterwards]  made 
long  leaguer  against  the  place  and  repulse  was  put  upon 
him  by  it  and  [then]  he  was  in  ambush  in  proximity  to 
it.  And  Eogan  got  tidings  of  that  and  came,  [with]  a 
more  numerous  complement  of  persons,  to  the  wood 
wherein  was  Niall  and  they  fell  in  with  each  other  and 
smote  each  other  without  ruth.  And  Eogan  was  slain  on 
the  spot  and  stroke  of  sword  was  stricken  on  Niall, 
whereof  he  died  quickly  after  that.  And  it  is  not  easy 
[to  say]  that  there  came  folk  of  their  years  of  the  Cenel-

by  O'Neill,  namely,  Conn,  son  of  Conn,  to  go  into  Tir-

large  force  of  Scots  whom  he  had  were,  another  large 
host,  along  the  Finn  and  Maghnus  O'Domnaill  and  a 
party  of  the  Scots  went  to  discharge  weapons  at  the  host 
of  the  Earl  in  the  night.  And  the  son  of  O'Bruin^ 
namely,  the  Calbach,  son  of  Brun,  son  of  Tadhg,  was  slain 
by  them — a  great  loss  in  his  own  country.  And  peace  was 
made  between  them  on  the  morrow,  without  much  being 
destroyed  in  the  country  and  they  turned  back  into  Tir- 
Eogain.  And  they  found  Aodh,  son  of  Niall,  son  of  Conn,

lightsome  star  of  peace  of  the  descendants  of  Aodh  O'Neill

O'Domnaill,  namely,  Aodh  and  O'Neill,  namely.  Conn,  went 
to  the  Great  Council  to  Ath-Cliath,  to  meet  the  Justiciary : 
and  the  Councillors  of  the  king  and  very  many  of  the  nobles 
of  the  Foreigners  and  Gaidhil  [were]  there.  And,  after 
their  labouring  and  much  parley  made  by  their  friends  of  the 
Foreigners  and  Gaidhil  against  each  other  and  for  them- 
selves, it  resulted  not  in  peace  being  made  between  them, 
but  [in]  going  to  their  houses.  And  O'Domnaill  went 
[with]  a  host  twice  into  Tir-Eogain  this  year  and  much 
was  destroyed  by  him  in  it  and  he  was  not  encountered 
during  those  [raids].  And  a  patched-up  peace  was  made 
between  them  in  the  beginnÍDg  of  Harvest  and  a  promise 
to  abide  as  the  Earl  of  Kildare  and  Maghnus  O'Domnaill

to9k  them  \vith  him  to  the  place  where  the  evil  deed  was 
done  and  directed  them  to  be  flayed  alive  at  first  and 
their  bowels  and  their  entrails  to  be  taken  out  of  them  and 
then  to  be  burned  in  his  presence. — O'Cathain,  namely, 
John,  son  of  Thomas,  a  warlike  man,  who  was  pretende-^ 
to  [the  lordship  of]  his  own  district,  was  slain  by 
portion  of  his  own  sept  in  a  night  incursion ;  namely,  by 
Mac  Euaidhri  of  the  Koute  and  by  the  son  of  Godfrey 
O'Cathain  that  was  done  on  Lammas  night. — The  bishop^

most  of  the  world  in  his  own  time  and  who  least  hoarded

by  consent  and  [part]  in  despite  and  a  man  who  often 
brought  a  large  host  to  muster  to  destroy  his  enemies. 
So  that  there  was  not  in  proximity  to  him  in  his  own 
district,  or  in  another  district,  any  good  person  or  leader 
that  did  not  accept  his  stipend.  And  another  thing  also  : 
[the  death  of]  that  bishop  was  the  [sore]  deed  above  every 
deed  and  the  loss  above  every  loss  that  happened  to  learn- 
ing at  one  time  with  his. — The  [rural]  dean^,  son  of  Brian 
Mac  Conmidhe  the  Red,  a  man  that  kept  a  general  guest- 
house for  every  one  and  his  son,  namely,  Cerball,  [died] 
in  this  year. — The  son  of  Godfrey  [Mag  Uidhir]  the  Eed, 
namely,  Euaidhri,  died  this  year. — Mag  Raghnaill, 
namely,  Cathal  junior,  son  of  another  Cathal,  was  slain 
in  treachery  by  the  sons  of  O'Mailmiadhaigh.— The 
daughter  of  Mag  Uidhir,  namely,  Rosa,  daughter  of  John, 
son  of  Philip  Mag  Uidhir,  died  this  year. — The  daughter 
of  Mag  Mathgamna,  namely,  Joan,  daughter  of  Brian  Mag

Mag  Uidhir,  had,  died  this  year.

He  was  unaware  at  the  time  of  the

Otherwise,  he  would  not  have

slain  in  treachery  by  the  people  of  his  own  brother. — 
O'NeilP,    namely,    Conn    and   the  son    of    O'Domnaill, 
namely,  Maghnus,  went    to    meet  the    Earl  of    Kildare, 
namely,  Gerald,  son  of  Gerald,   Justiciary  of  Ireland,  in 
the  Spring  of  this  year,  to  make  the  peace  of  the  Conal- 
lians  and  Eoganians.     And,  after  the  assembling  of  many 
of  the  nobles  of    the  Foreigners  and   Gaidhil  to  pacify 
them,  peace  was  not  knit  between  them  that  time,  but  they 
went  safe  to  their  houses. — O'Raighilligh,  namely,  Eoghan) 
died  this  year   and  great  war   [arose]   between  his  own 
sept    respecting    lordship  of    the   country,  until   Fergal, 
son  of  John  O'Raighilligh,  was  proclaimed  O'Raighilligh, 
on  recommendation   of  the  Justiciary  and  many  of  the 
nobles  of   Foreigners  and   Gaidhil,  although  there  were 
persons  elder^  than  he  pretending  to  it. — Great  war  arose 
in  Lower  Connacht  this  year  :  to  wit,   very  great  part  of 
them  joined    against    O'Domnaill    under    Brian,  son    of 
Feidhlimidh,  son    of   Maghnus    O'Concobuir  and  under 
the   son  of    Cathal    O'Concobuir    junior    and   under  the 
descendants    of   Cormac    Mac   Donnchaidh.     And  great 
raids  were  made  by  them  in  Lower  Cairpre  on  the  persons 
that  remained  in   the  country.     And   O'Domnaill  broke 
down  the  castle  of  the  Grainsech  in  eric  of  those  and  he 
went  after  that  into  Magh-Luirg   and  the  country  was 
burned  and  destroyed  by  him  and   he  and  his  host  went 
ofí'  safe  afterwards. — O'Neill,  namely.   Conn,  went  [with] 
a  host  to   prevent   the   work  of  a  castle^  which  Maghnus 
O'Domnaill  began  to  build  at  Port-na-tri-namat.     And 
O'Domnaill  [was]    in    Lower  Connacht  and  part  of  the 
horse-host  of  Maghnus  O'Domnaill  overtook  the  head  of 
the  host  and  the  son  of  John,  son  of  Conn  O'Neill,  namely,

out  notable  damage  being  done  to  bira  or  being  done  by 
him,  except  like  that. — That  Sil-Concobuir*  and  the 
Clann-Donnchaidh  who  were  at  war^  with  O'Domnaill 
went  around  the  castle  of  Sligech  to  destroy  corn-fields 
and  to  attack  the  place.  And  O'Domnaill  in  some  way 
got  tidings  of  their  being  there  and  marched  against 
them  and  overtook  them  and  they  were  defeated  by  him 
and  the  son  of  Mac  Donnchaidh  and  many  others  that 
are  not  reckoned  here  were  taken  from  them.  And  many 
horses  and  arms  and  armour  were  taken  from  them  also. — 
O'Cathain,  namely,  Godfrey,  son  of  Godfrey,  was  slain  by 
NiaU,  son  of  Art  O'Neill  junior,  in  the  centre  of  Belach-an-

were  not  got  from  that  until  end  of  the  Lent^  next 
ensuing  (that  is,  his  corpse  was  found  there,  without^ 
[marks  of]  slaying  by  weapon  on  it).  And  Henry,  son  of 
Brian,  lord  of  Baile-na-braghat^*^,  was  slain  there  and 
many  of  his  people  were  dispersed  and  slain  there  with 
them. — Defeat  was  given  by  the  son  of  Mac  Piers  to  the

excess  of  his  illegality  and  his  injustice  on  them,  so  that  [1534] 
this  was  the  counsel  the  king  and  nobles  of  the  Saxons 
adopted, — to  put  the  Earl  into  the  tower  of  London  in  anti- 
cipation of  his  ruin.  As  to  the  son  and  heir  of  the  Earl, 
namely,  Thomas^,  son  of  Gerald  :  after  hearing  that,  this 
is  the  counsel  himself  and  his  kinsmen  and  his  friends  of 
the  Foreigners  and  Gaidhil  decided  on, — to  make  alliance 
of  war  against  the  king.  After  that  counsel  was  heard  of  by 
the  archbishop^  of  the  town  of  Ath-cliath  and  by  the  prior^ 
of  Cell-Mai ghnenn,^  by  the  bishop^  of  Meath  and  by  many 
others  who  are  not  reckoned  here,  who  had  a  part  in  putting 
the  Earl  in  the  place  of  hisruin,  excessively  greatf  ear  seized 
them,  so  that  they  left  their  lordship  and  their  courts  and 
their  castles  and  every  other  wealth  they  had  without 
custody,  so  that  they  fled  from  Ireland  very  quickly 
cowardly,  irresolutely,  to  go  to  Saxon-land,  for  fear  and 
for  great  dread  of  the  son  of  the  Earl  putting  them  to 
death  in  revenge  of  his  father.  As  to  the  archbishop  of 
the  town  of  Ath-cliath,  it  is  publicly  related  he  went  forth 
by  a  night  journey  to  leave  Ireland,  with  but  a  few  of  his 
people  with  him.  And  on  his  going  into  the  ship  at 
Benn-Edair^  the  people  of  the  son  of  the  Earl  overtook 
him  and  he  was  taken  by  them,  without  respect  to  his 
privilege  or  to  his  reverence,  and  excessive  hardship  was 
put  on  him  and  they  carried  him  with  them  to  Ard-aidhin 
[Artane],  in  proximity  to  Ciuain-tarbh  [Clontarf].  When 
the  son  of  the  Earl  heard  that  thing,  it  pleased  him  ;  he 
made  not  rest,  or  stay,  until  he  reached  the  place  where 
the  bishop  was  and  he  put  on  his  people  to  do  a  prodigious, 
unprecedented,   unmerciful    deed,  through    which    were

arrested  two  other  culprits  who  were  [implicated]  in  that 
murder  and  gave  them  up  to  Mag  Uidhir  and  Mag  Uidhir

pregnant  by  her  own  husband,  was  put  in  prison  until  she 
brought  forth  that  birth  and  was  hung  at  the  end.  Two 
brothers  of  that  Brian  pursued  him  into  Oirghialla  and 
he  was  killed  by  them  in  treachery.  And  woe  is  the  one

sold  and  betray ed^  by  him  to  the  Saxons,  whilst  the  warders 
of  the  town  were  asleep  and  the  majority  of  the  warders 
were  slain  in  their  sleep  and  five,  or  six,  clerics  and  priestb^ 
were  slain  there.     And,  when  they  went  into  possession  of 
the  town,  they  brought  that  man  who  betrayed  the  town 
to  them,  into  the  presence  of  the  Deputy  of  the  king.    And 
it  was  asked  of  him  how  long  lie  could  hold  the  town,  if 
he  had  not  betrayed  it.     And  he  said  that  he  could  hold 
it  to  the  end  of  a  year.     After  tbat,  it  was  asked  of  him 
what  the  son  of  the  Earl  had  done  to  him  for  which  he  did 
treachery  on  his  lord.     And  he  said  that  he  never  did 
anything  in  the  world  that  was  displeasing  to  him.     And 
it  was  reproached    to  him  that  he    did  much  injury  to

Saxons  said  it  were  fitter   for  him  to  do  treachery   on

treachery   on  the   son  of  the  Earl,  who   gave  much  to

^Betrayed. —  "The  castle  .  .  is 
said  by  Stanihurst  to  have  been 
betrayed  by  Chris.  Pareis  ;  but  in 
Skeffington's  own  account  .  .  there 
is  not  the  slightest  allusion  to  any 
such  betrayal ;  and,  as  the  Irish 
annalists  make  no  mention  of  it, 
"We  may  easily  believe  it  to  bs  one 
of  the  many  pure  fabrications  with 
which  Stanihurst  has  embellished 
his  narrative  "   (O'D.  v.  1421). 

Biit,  having  regard  to  the  man- 
ner in  which  it  was  effected,  the 


betrayal  is  not  excluded  by 
Skeffington's  account;  wliilst  the 
present  text,  tallying  with  Stani- 
hurst in  every  detail,  save  giving 
the  reward  to  the  father,  disproves 
the  inferential  charge  of  fabri- 
cation. 

The  castle  was  taken  "the  23rd 
day,  being  the  Tewsdaye  next  be- 
fore Eister  Day  "  ( Skef .  and  Coun- 
cil to  Hen.  VIII.  St.  P.  ii.  230).

father,  namely,  Thomas.  They  were  taken  all  at  one 
time  and  sent  to  Saxon-land  and  it  seems  to  us  that  not 
well  happened  that. — The  king  of  the  Saxons  made 
accusation  against  the  queen^  that  she  committed  adultery 
and  she  was  put  to  death  through,  that  and  her  head  was 
taken  off  her  and  he  turned  not  himself  from  his  error  of

was  doing  much  injury  throughout  Trian-Congail.  Niall 
junior,  son  of  Niall,  son  of  Conn  [O'Neill],  mustered  the 
country  and  delivered  an  attack  on  them  and  Gilla-espuic 
himself  and  two  score,  or  three,  of  his  people  with  him 
were  slain. — Mac  Domnaill  of  Scotland,  (namely,  Alex- 
ander, son  of  John  Cathanach)  died. — Ua  Cathain  went 
on  a  raid  on  Mac  Uibhilin.  Word  went  to  Mac  TJibhilin 
and  the  whole  country  and  the  Scots  were  mustered  by 
him  and  they  went  covertly  to  a  certain  place.  Ua 
Cathain  took  the  spoils  of  the  country  and  put  them  be- 
fore him.  Mac  Uibhilin  fell  in  with  them,  in  waiting  for 
them  and  defeated  them  and  the  spoils  were  wrested 
from  them  and  many  of  their  people  were  slain  and 
they  returned  not  until  the  house  of  Ua  Cathain  was

the  host  to  put  watch  and  warders  between  them  and  the 
Connacian  host  that  was  mustered  opposite  them.  Aedh 
the  Tawny,  son  of  Ua  Domnaill,  put  a  party  of  the  de- 
scendants of  bishop^  O'Gallchubair  as  wards  and  Ua 
Baighill  [with]  a  few  of  his  people  with  him  went  to 
watch  [on  the  same  side].  The  two  watches  themselves 
fell  in  with  each  other  and  Ua  Baighill  by  mischance  was 
slain  between  them  by  one  stroke  of  a  javelin.  The  host 
became  disordered  because  of  that  and  had  [it]  not  been 
[for]  the  excellence  of  the  intervention,  many  would  have 
fallen  among  them  on  account  of  the  death  of  Ua  Baighill. 
The  host  [then]  went  to  Tir-Fiachrach  and  were  there

around  the  monastery  of  the  Maighen^^  and  great  spoils 
were  brought  by  them  to  the  host.  The  host  turned 
back,  after  Ua  Domnaill  making  peace  between  bishop^^ 
Barrett  and  the  sons  of  John  de  Burgh.  Frequent  fi ght-

was  done  between  them.  Ua  Domnaill  went  to  his  house 
without  peace,  without  truce. — A  hosting  by  Ua  Neill

went  into  the  Breifne  of  O'Eaghilligh  on  a  [raiding] 
march  and  many  of  its  people  were  slain  by  them  and  the 
son  of  O'Raghilligh,  namely,  of  the  Sternness,  was 
slain  by  them. — Foul  treachery  was  done  by  the  sons  of 
O'Flannagain,  namely  by  the  sons  of  Gilla-Isa,  son  of 
Toirdelbach,  namely,  Toirdelbach  and  Muircertach,  on

Justiciary.  And  the  Justiciary  was  attempted  to  be  killed 
by  the  Saxons.  His  church  was  set  on  fire  because  they 
[he  and  his  retinue]  would  be  found  [there]  to  [the  precise]

the  unique  son  of  a  king  that,  of  those  who  were  in  the 
same  time  as  he,  was  best  of  hand  and  nobleness,  was  slain

the  descendants  of  Aedh  O'lsTeill  asked  of  him  not  to 
destroy,  or  to  burn,  the  town  of  his  own  patron  and  the 
Justiciary  took  their  advice  after  that  and  truce  of  a 
fortnight  was  made  by  them  with  Ua  Neill. — James,  son
